Desk checked: check. Guests checked: check. Live in three... two... one...
Oops. With Ste in America selling the rights to USA Life Left, it’s
down to Simon and Ann to hold the show together. But following an
anarchic Bike Show, there’s little time. It’s fair to say there are
more errors with the desk in the first 10 minutes than the first 10
minutes of any show. But we muddle through as only One Life Left knows
how: poorly.

Joined by Eurogamer editor Tom Bramwell and a genuine, actual One
Listener Left from the other side of the world, it’s kind-of business
as usual: if the usual is a broken studio recorder (thanks for saving
the show, Derek Williams!), friendly racism, and quite a lot of
actual chat about videogames and that.

Features include Derek Williams (thanks!), Mathew Kumar (thanks!)
and a special As Seen On TV (hmmm), but the highlight has to be
three-and-a-half minutes of Craig “The Rage”. Astonishing stuff,
which’ll long be remembered after the theme rolls.

Join us next week when we’ll be welcoming yet another SuperGuest.
And the return of Ste, who’ll no doubt have a go at us for not making
up an icon or nothing when we were only doing our best, which is
patently not good enough.

Hats off!

(PS: Massive, massive thanks to Derek Williams who’s tirelessly
pieced together bits from an intermittent feed to ensure this appears
in your ears in some capacity. As such, the quality varies – the
Internet’s fault, not Derek’s – but it’s uploaded here because surely
it’s better than not being uploaded here at all. Thanks Derek!)
